Nelms and Me


Ok, so I was at work a couple of days ago and I heard that David Nelms, the CEO of Discover Card, was at our center and was going to speak to us. Now any time I hear his name, I can't help but picture his hair...it rivals Donald Trump's trademark style. both of these men have incredible amounts of money and are both very successful in what they do. before the meeting I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and what I saw was a guy who hadn't showered in a few days that had been camping out at the hospital. So I did what only a LaClaire would do, I did my best David Nelms Comb over I possibly could and set out to meet the man. I succeed at Discover with "Name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake." I could not help myself, so I had to take a picture, which picture now occupies my background on my computer at work. I wonder if he had any idea? I say his smile says no.

Hopefully he never sees your blog because CEOs generally don't want to be mocked by their employees...just sayin'.

Joel your hair can pretty much do anything, it's amazingly versatile. this one is really good though.
